How to make Pasta with bacon and onion:

1. Boil the pasta by putting a pot of water on the fire and adding it when it starts to boil. Cook, stirring from time to time, until the pasta is al dente, or what is the same, cooked but firm, without becoming excessively soft. Drain the water and reserve.
2. Clean and slice the mushrooms while the pasta cooks. If you prefer, you can cut them smaller, to your liking!
3. Peel and finely chop the onion and put it on the fire in a pan with a drizzle of olive oil. When it starts to get transparent, we add the mushrooms to sauté them.
4. Add a splash of white wine and keep the pan on the heat until the mushrooms are almost done.
5. Cut the bacon into strips and, when the mushrooms are almost done, add them to the pan. Season with a pinch of ground garlic, stir well and let cook for five minutes to continue with the recipe for pasta with bacon and onion.
6. Add the well-drained pasta, mix and add the cream or heavy cream. Stir the fusilli in white sauce well and season with salt.
7. Cook for a few minutes, stirring occasionally. We immediately serve the fusilli with bacon and onion, and enjoy a rich and simple pasta dish!
